“Many times the sources that patients utilize for making such important decisions include hearsay from friends and family or information available on the internet. Much of this information is anecdotal in nature and may not even apply to a person’s unique medical needs. HealthClues helps eliminate the confusion in decision making by enabling people to receive unbiased and evidence-based medical opinion from experts” – said Sandeep Pandey, founder of HealthClues.

Very few can express their questions and concerns openly with the doctor. Lack of understanding of medical terms, doctor’s availability and attitude, and other socio-cultural factors can make the information exchange hard. To overcome this challenge, people resort to multiple alternatives. Consulting multiple doctors are one way but it can be a time-consuming process, and costly when the insurance provider refuses to reimburse the cost incurred in additional consultations.

A person is also likely to reveal the first medical opinion either explicitly or through her body language in a face-to-face consultation. Medical research indicates that knowledge of the first opinion can influence the subsequent opinions. Commercialization of medicine can also lead to a person receiving a biased opinion. Other modes used by people include asking friend or family, referring to websites and various online discussion forums. While these methods are good for increasing awareness, it can leave a person even more confused than before.

Keeping in mind all the above challenges, HealthClues has come up with a proprietary process that ensures that a person can receive the second opinion from top doctors who are given access to the complete set of medical records and history. The process ensures that a person receives an evidence-based and reliable medical opinion which can be used in conjunction with physical checkup based consultation to arrive at a sound decision.
